Beginning this week, Hope College students will begin to call non-transit users in the Lakeshore community to conduct a survey for the Macatawa Area Express Transportation Authority.Residents of Holland and Zeeland, Park and portions of Port Sheldon and West Olive will be included in the study.The 14-question survey will ask residents about their opinions on the transit system and what improvements they would like to see. The Frost Center hopes to complete a minimum of 800 surveys for data that is statistically 95 percent accurate. Results and findings from the survey will be presented to the MAX Authority Board at its June 23 meeting.MAX ridership in 2014 is expected to top a half-million rides. The transit system has expanded its services and continues to see ridership growth.For more information: catchamax.org.
